good relaxing vacation

Honestly, I’m a little feed up with my stressful life. I could use a lot from a good relaxing vacation in a serene place far away from the jungle of the urban life. I’m just imagining how soothing it is to go on boating in a scenic lake. Or just enjoy hiking at the peaceful mountains. It’s also a good idea to go to a theater for great music, comedy, magic and large production show.

Well, I’m sure all those activities will take away my worries and my stresses. Better grab some discounted tickets early like the Branson tickets. The lower the cost the better it would be. Planning early will surely help and will avoid having to suffer from additional vacation preparation stress.

making it all possible

I already mentioned before about my intentions of going back to school to get master’s degree. But, I chicken out because of several reasons like finances, time, work and family. I’m already having hard time juggling all of them in one day. I don’t have any super powers and energy to add more to that.

Anyway, I just want to commend hubby’s sister for making it all possible. Her situation is different from me though since she has three nannies to do the chores and take care of the kids. Plus, her husband works shores away, so she doesn’t have to mind being a wife most of the time. And, she is a plain housewife. It all means she has lots of spare time to spend for schooling.

With all that being said she still thinks of moving to Online School. As I see it she is was able to manage her time perfectly. But, she said it’s the other way around although people see her as a good candidate to go to traditional schools. She feels awkward having very young classmates. Also, she no longer wants to sit in the crowded lecture halls, tracking down professors for office hours, and travelling to and from classes. That’s why she wants to transfer to online school to eliminate all the hassles of traditional studies.

different scenario

After a few months, now is the only time hubby realizes he needs to go on shopping for jeans. I always mention that he should purchase at least two to three new jeans as he really needs to replace the old ones. But, he never listens so I did not bother to remind him again. Whenever I open the topic he always says that he can still make good use of the old ones.

Today is a different scenario. He keeps on talking about the rocawear jeans he saw in the web yesterday. I’m just guessing he is enticed to shop because the store he visited is on great sale. He always waits for sale. According to him he gets his money’s worth. Actually, I’m a bit interested to shop as well. But, I don’t feel the need to do so. So, I will just leave the shopping to him. Hopefully, he finds what he is looking for.

a close call

It is indeed a close call. I came from the bathroom and about to dress up, when the door suddenly open up. Good thing there is no one around, if there is, for sure they will see the entire of me. Good if hubby sees me, but if other people see me like the helper, I’m sure I will die from shame.

Anyway, I clearly remember that I lock the door when I get in. As I check it, I found out that our door knob is already damage. It’s no longer as reliable as before. There are two options though, to have it fix or to entirely change it. Changing it is a bit costly, but I can rest assured that it will not malfunction in the near future. Tweaking its parts to fix it will solve the problem now, but it’s not too dependable.

I really have to make a decision before something again. I’m just lucky that time, but I might not be very lucky next time. Oh my I don’t want to experience that again.

he intends to buy the latest iphone

After realizing that hubby’s four year old Nokia N73 is already damaged, he is planning to buy a new one. Actually, the phone is still functioning. But, it will automatically shut down when in use especially during calls. He intends to buy the latest Iphone that costs way too much.

Well, it’s his money so deserves to spend it to things he likes. If ever, I will really recommend to purchase iphone warranty to protect the phone product failures. I have seen an affordable iphone insurance that offers protection whether dropped or stolen, or damaged by liquid, including submersion. Normally, iphone warranty only covers product failure from manufacturer’s defects, but not drops and spills. So, having the iphone insurance is really amazing.

I wonder if he will open the idea to also buy me iphone. Honestly, my phone is already five years old. Luckily it is still in good condition although it’s no longer pleasing to the eyes.

really need to follow cooking guides

Yesterday, I was cooking a noodle dish that goes very bad. Actually, it tastes good as I make sure that it will still be edible after realizing I’m doing something wrong. I miscalculated its amount. The dish that is supposed to be good for only four people, but ends up it can feed at least 10.

Well, I have too many of the food because I did not follow any recipe. I only acted as if I’m a master cook that can manage without any help. Well, I’m that sometimes, but not all the time. My folks complained that I’m like feeding a party. But, they compliment its taste despite its amount.

This is a lesson for me to keep recipe books until I perfected the art of cooking. I guess I have to read several books and cook different kinds of dishes before that will happen. For now, I should not take risk or else I will continue wasting food.

Oops! I forget it

Oops! I forget to bring hubby’s laptop briefcase. My bad now what? He needs that briefcase for him to bring his laptop whenever he needs it. Actually, I could ask someone to open the luggage where I place it. Then, ask that person to send it here. But, I guess that would be too costly. So, I think it’s better to buy a new one, besides his briefcase his already a bit old. Using it is no longer pleasing to the eye.

I have seen a lot of good quality laptop briefcases somewhere in the web a long time ago. I just forget to bookmark the site as there is no immediate need for it. Good thing I was able to find it back. All I have to do is to let hubby choose and decide the design that suits his needs.

would be very happy

While I was organizing my stuff, I saw an old wallet that is given to me by hubby five years ago. Sure, I forget about it. Five years is a long time to remember all the stuff he had given me. I’m just a bit surprised to see the things inside it including his first greeting card and few old foreign coins. It’s refreshing to remember our first dates and how he courted me.

But, I would be very happy if those old foreign coins are gold coins. I’m sure in five years’ time those gold coins already increased in value. It’s considered a unique investment and one of the best ways to preserve one’s wealth and purchasing power.

Anyway, as an investment product, gold is available in coin or ingot form. Ingots are generally gold ingots of pure bullion cast in a convenient size and shape. Coins have a currency value or they are actually defined as ingots.
